are certain to advance to the second round in November because they are the
only certified write-in candidates in districts where only one candidate is
named on the ballot. Mary McIlroy also advances to the November election.

in other counties are not included here.

County Central Committees

Here are partial results of the contested Central Committee elections. Where the data is available, we report percentages of total turnout as well as percentages of the total number of votes (where each voter has several votes). We think this approach is more meaningful than the way "vote for N" elections are reported by election officials. But it isn’t perfect either because Peace and Freedom registrants who didn’t vote for any Central Committee candidates are included in the denominator.

In Alameda County, 5th Supervisorial District, six candidates were elected.
These numbers were last updated at 4:10pm on June 11 . Alameda County says
they are the final results.
